BEC情景对话：Preparations and Developing Your Topic

Dialogue One

M:  I've got to put together a sale speech to give to our clients in the morning.  You always give such amazing presentations.  I was hoping you can give me some advice about how to win them over tomorrow. 

F:  Sure,  it's easy.  First of all,  the secret to a successful or a presentation is to keep things simple.  People are listening and they usually don't have a long attention spends,  stick to about three or four points,  give them overview of your points and present them one by one,  and then summarzie at the end,  be staightforward and organized,  and you'll sure to be remembered, 

M:  What kind of visual should I use to support the presentation? Do you think I should use powerpoint?

F:  You should consider the size and interests of your audients.  In other words,  who is listening and what do they want here,  you can put together a PPT with some graphics and animations that will catch people's attention,  but be careful not to go overboard. 

M:  I think I can put things together,  no problem,  but when it comes to tomorrow.  I'll just be a bond of nervous,  how can I get over my fear of speaking in public?

F:  You know stage fright is very normal.  Most people get nervous before they have to speak in front of large groups,  just prepare well,  rehurst beforehand and trust that you will be great,  and you will be!

Dialogue Two

F:  Aren't you going to give us a training workshop next week? How are things going on your preparation for the presentation?

M:  I'm having trouble nerving done my topic for the training,  I want to speak about how to improve our sales technique,  but there is so much to say! It's hard to get organized. 

F:  Our training group won't be very large,  so you will have more time to focus on more areas,  we can cover a lot of ground in an hour and a half if everyone is participating and paying attention. 

M:  I want to focus on some suggestions about making sales scores,  and I was hoping to throw in a few role play so that people get practice implementing the things I'm going to talk about,  do you think people will go for the role playing?

F:  I think some people may be a little shy to do role playing in front of class,  but if you are enthusiastic about your topic,  you can help everyone to feel more at ease,  and willing to give it a try.
